OpenGL 4.3 for VMware workstation 16

[camilotorresm]

I'm currently using Ubuntu 18.04 (I've manually updated the kernel to the latest version =5.10) also I'm using the latest version of mesa available for my system using the repository from kisak, wich is version 20.3. Still, I can't get OpenGL to run on version 4.3, max I can do is 4.1. The thing is  I am building a project using Unreal 4.24 and it demands OpenGL version 4.3.

This is the output from running:

camus@ubuntu:~$ glxinfo | grep 'OpenGL version'
OpenGL version string: 4.1 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 20.3.4 - kisak-mesa PPA

I hope you could help me, this is my first post, but also my first time using VMware.

The Product page for VMware Workstation Pro does claim to support OpenGL 4.3, as seen here:

Windows VM | Workstation Pro | VMware

Is this information accurate, or will this be supported in a future release?

Thank you in advance,
